yes obviously walls would be good but that's a lot of money and the parents I live with aren't willing to invest in it atm, I'm just happy they let me use the space.

maybe put up some wall blankets or something. anything. anime wall scrolls would literally be better than just studs and insulation with a film of plastic.

actually you sparked me to push my dad more into just buying the supplies so I can do it myself.
I understand it's a ton of labour, but it appears to be relatively easy "just be careful" labour.

for some reason I can’t get it to boot windows 98 or XP or Linux. something must be wrong because there’s a guy in VOGONS with the same board running XP. the firmware can only be upgraded by 💾 though so I cba

you should get yourself some of this stuff for that 17"

it's magic. takes all those hazy scratches out and makes the thing totally clear again. you can go for the whole 1-2-3 set if you want but the #2 is the really important one.

I find that the buzz of an HDD is core to the vintage experience for me.
